As part of Pride season, we are running a series of short podcasts providing an insight into the lives and experiences of LGBT+ leaders. These exceptional individuals come from a diverse range of backgrounds and will be sharing with listeners their experiences of LGBT+ inclusion in their respective industries, and also some ideas on what more allies can do to promote LGBT+ equality.
In this episode, Head of Pensions Daniel Gerring speaks with Zoe Burdo, Consultant at LCP, and Katy Hyams, Head of Regulatory Policy at the London Metal Exchange. This informative conversation focusses on lesbian, gay, bi and trans women, the double glazed glass ceiling, allyship and much more.
